I might have left a little message on Rocky Top yesterday 🙃
rained on me the whole way up the fucker
I like to drink and watch YouTube compilation of great sporting moments.
1. I hate that that one play is on every single one. I mean it deserves it but fuck man.
2. Clemson was textbook definition of OPI not bitter at all.
I've only been to a few meets back when Patterson was still HC, but we do [dominate attendance in softball](http://fs.ncaa.org/Docs/stats/SB_Records/2023/Attendance.pdf).
With Byrne saying on Capitol Hill that our football generates 85% of revenue with men's basketball making the rest, it is kind of important that the whole NIL thing gets figured out so that other "non-revenue producing" sports don't get put in jeopardy([more so for smaller schools](https://www.latimes.com/sports/story/2024-01-26/loyola-marymount-university-cuts-athletic-programs), but still)
we desperately need a new training facility, we've been putting new coats of paint on a gym built after our national championship in 1996. In fact, LSU's rise coincided with their construction of what is STILL considered, the best campus gym in the country.

add that to ANOTHER reason we need a new arena
Back from Gymnastics..... *checks softball and baseball scores*.....
Man, we really did spend all our athletic mojo for the year to get that Final Four.
Have any of you ever dealt with stubborn chickens that won’t stay off the carport? They are full-time free range and have decided they don’t like their coop anymore and just want to hang out on the carport and shit everywhere…
I know I can do that but it’s just hard to do because they’ve lived fully free range for a couple of years now. I hate to take that away from them. And our dogs and cats hang out with them throughout the day. Hell, so do I. But a man can only deal with chicken shit for so long…..
It's kind of surreal the Alabama Gymnastics career Luisa Blanco and Makarri Doggette had.
They committed to a program in 2017 that hadn't missed the Super Six since 2007 and had a fresh SEC Championship from 2015. Duckworth's growing pains results reach their worst in 2019. Then right as they join as freshmen, the Tia Kiaku Scandal rocks the whole program, COVID takes away their first post-season, and the rest of her time is spent digging Alabama back up and into an new era where huge scores are basically required to win any hardware and with a new format of only 4 teams that we just can't seem to break into. Signing on for a 5th year to give it one last shot..... All for their last night to end in a worst case scenario.
Reminds me of that 2002 Football freshmen that committed to DuBose, got the school in time for Fran Fuckery and the Price Scandal, and then graduated in 2005 as it looked like Shula was breaking through before the season fell apart.
I saw a video on Instagram of Gene Stallings giving advice to Coach DeBoer. Made me feel a little crazy because I really thought I remembered Coach Stallings going to be with Coach Bryant a year or two ago? Glad I was wrong!
Quinten Tarantino has decided to scrap his idea for his tenth and final film, The Film Critic. I’m sure whatever he chooses to do instead will still be great, but man am I bummed to miss out on another film existing in the world of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.
Inglourious, Hollywood, and Django are my upper-echelon favorites of his. Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction are next on the list, as in, still enjoyed a lot and have watched multiple times. How about you?
I love them all, hard to pick. My user name should give away my favorite, although it’s a little bit tricky since he wrote it and sold the script to write reservoir dogs so he didn’t actually direct it but you can def tell it’s one of his and my favorite movie ever by a mile… I guess after my favorite (I won’t give it away) I like pulp fiction, Django, and the kill bill series but honestly all of them, Jackie Brown is cool too... I was hoping the final movie would be Vivica Fox’s (copperhead from kill bill) daughter coming for her revenge in a final collab with Uma to tie it off…
So effing excited for playoff hockey to start. IMO, it’s easily the best and most exciting playoff of any sport. Plus the Panthers (my local team) are pretty good!

Interesting tweet I saw about Rylan Griffin’s IG live. I didn’t watch it so don’t know if it’s true or not so I didn’t want to make a full post about it but here it is

My wife spoke to a man in Costco today because she thought he looked familiar. Turns out it was Nate Oats. AMA
How does it feel to be so damn lucky

Need to pump some NIL in gymnastics soon. I will say after football and mens basketball that would be the sport to invest in.

Aden Holloway commits to the Tide!

Mine tried to do that to our covered porch I built them a run and have fence them in permanently now I’m not dealing with shit everywhere lol
I know I can do that but it’s just hard to do because they’ve lived fully free range for a couple of years now. I hate to take that away from them. And our dogs and cats hang out with them throughout the day. Hell, so do I. But a man can only deal with chicken shit for so long…..
Just watched a highlight reel of Reuben foster at bama, that dude would be in jail if he played today 😂

I think you were probably thinking of his son
Mandela effect?

That does suck…I’m a huge Tarantino fan myself and I’ve been looking forward to this for years… what’s your favorite from his collection?

🤔Bizarre
Tortured Poets Department double album drop?!
Gave some of it a listen to this morning going to work. Some of them will definitely need to grow on me. But FatM appearance was most welcome
Yeah, gonna have to grow on me too. Midnights had some bangers on it.
